in other words, cuts to the big three. and, number five, of course, is the big one for republicans -- no tax hikes. boehner's plan is nothing but cut, cap, and balance, wrapped in a brand-new package and tried to be sold to the american people tonight. if you look at it side-by-side comparison, the two plans, boehner is a fool not to take reid's package. boehner's plan has 1.2 trillion in cuts. reid more than doubles the number with $2.7 trillion in cuts. so who's the honest player here? boehner has two debt limit votes and reid has one. let's get it done. reid's plan also has deep cuts to the pentagon budget, and it assumes that the wars are going to eventually end in iraq and afghanistan on a date, right? now, boehner's problem with the reid plan is that it takes the big three right off the table. and, of course, the real republican two-step is to kill the new deal and defeat of president obama and create more opportunities for more tax breaks at the top. neither one of these plans tonight, it must be pointed out that th

really doesn't matter if we don't raise the debt ceiling, we can get through default, it won't be a big deal. now, john boehner doesn't believe that, mitch mcconnell doesn't believe that, but boehnor seems unable to move toward any kind of agreement, partly because he's worried about his own fate in this caucus or he's worried that if he puts together a deal that is supported by too many democrats and not enough republicans, he's also threatened. so i think it's that internal politics in the republican caucus that's blocking this. i think what might happen is that mitch mcconnell may decide to let harry reid pass his plan without threatening a filibuster. now, if he did that, the democrats could get it through with a majority. that's how most democracies do things, but not our senate, and that may set up grounds for a solution. that's about the only thing i could see right now that might begin to get us out of this or at least begin real negotiations again. >> so, speaking of that, of the idea there is, in fact, a majority rule, and that there's so much politics going on here, look, we
